Ever since Dean Ambrose bid his final goodbye to the WWE Universe, it is all wrestling fans have been talking about.
After spending nearly 6 years on the main roster and winning numerous championships including the WWE Championship, The Lunatic Fringe decide not to renew his WWE contract which came to an end this April.
With Ambrose a free agent now, there has been a lot of speculation regarding where the 33-year-old will land next.
All Elite Wrestling seems to be the best choice for Ambrose as of now, and with their first event Double or Nothing coming up soon, let us take a look at 5 indications that point towards Jon Moxley joining AEW:
#5 Chris Jericho welcomes Ambrose to join AEW
Chris Jericho is not just a WWE Legend, but the man has proven that he is the jack of all trades. After striking it big as a WWE Superstar, Jericho went on to perform for NJPW, even winning the IWGP Intercontinental Championship in the company.
Now, Chris Jericho is making history as one of the founding members of Tony Khan's upcoming promotion All Elite Wrestling.
While AEW's current roster already has top names such as Cody, Kenny Omega, and PAC on board, Jericho is no doubt the biggest Superstar to have signed with the company as of now.
However, with Ambrose having left WWE, Y2J made some interesting remarks about Dean Ambrose joining AEW in the future:
“I’m sure if he wants to come to AEW he’d be more than welcome," Jericho said. He continued, "He’s a star, he’s a great performer, he’s a great character. “I think he would mix right in with those guys. “When you get a great performer, it doesn’t matter what company they were before because they’re at a top level.”
With a person like Jericho endorsing The Lunatic Fringe, it looks like Moxley moving to AEW is almost a certainty now.
#4 Dean Ambrose becomes Jon Moxley
Unless you were hiding under a rock yesterday, you must be aware that Dean Ambrose has decided to shed his WWE persona and become Jon Moxley once again.
Jon Moxley was the character that Ambrose had before he joined WWE. During his days on the independent circuit, Ambrose was famous for his hardcore style of wrestling and he went by the name Jon Moxley in all the promotions he had worked for prior to joining WWE.
By making it clear that he is no longer 'Dean Ambrose', he has put to rest all speculations regarding his possible WWE return and it looks like he will be heading to a new company now, which most likely will have to be AEW.
#3 Jimmy Havoc hints at a match with Jon Moxley
It can be said that Jimmy Havoc and Jon Moxley are indeed cut from the same cloth. Both known for their violent style of wrestling, they would be formidable opponents for each other.
Jimmy Havoc has already signed with AEW and will be bringing his hardcore style of performance to the promotion. He will be the perfect opponent for Moxley to face in order to get back in the groove of his Moxley character by facing someone with a similar style to his.
Havoc made his intentions very clear on Twitter when he stated:
#2 AEW has a lot of interest in signing Ambrose
With Ambrose becoming a free agent, he is easily the hottest non-contracted Superstar in the wrestling world right now, and a lot of companies will be looking to get dates from Ambrose in the future.
AEW has brought fresh buzz in the wrestling world, which has been largely dominated by WWE since 2001 after they bought WCW.
Dave Meltzer of WON had reported that AEW is "obviously" interested in bringing Dean Ambrose aboard.
#1 AEW made a major offer to Dean Ambrose
As reported by Slice Wrestling, AEW have made a major offer to Dean Ambrose. They stated that Ambrose was offered a contract around $6 Million per year, which would be more than what Roman Reigns or Seth Rollins make in WWE.
If indeed true, it looks like AEW are trying their level best to bring the former CZW Superstar on board.
